Chapter 73 - Gratitude

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Just as Fang Liu began to feel uncomfortable, Professor He finally spoke, “Which university did you graduate from? Was it Dongzhou University or Nancheng University?”

Dongzhou University and Nancheng University were two of the most famous universities in the country. One could say that it was the goal of all students to attend these prestigious universities.

Fang Liu was dumbfounded.

‘Is the professor mistaking me for someone else? I’ve never gone to university before.’

When Fang Liu was in the laboratory, she overheard some lab assistants chatting beside her and learned that Professor He had graduated from Will University. Will University was a prestigious university that specialized in medicine.

Fang Liu felt inferior when faced with Professor He. She lowered her head, and after remaining silent for a while, she whispered, “I never attended university, Professor He. Have you mistaken me for someone else? M-My husband is waiting for me. I will take my leave now.” Fang Liu covered her mouth and left.

As soon as Fang Liu left the research facility, she felt a little sad.

When Fang Liu overheard the lab assistants talking, she also learned that the only people allowed to enter this research facility were graduates from a prestigious university, industry bigshots, or scientists who studied abroad.

The people that worked in the lab knew that Fang Liu had never attended university, so there was a feeling of contempt in the air. Fang Liu felt that she would be ridiculed if she were to say something idiotic.

Fang Liu clenched her fists, feeling belittled and sad.

‘If I hadn’t been treated so poorly by the Fang family for so many years, would I have been able to go to a university and pursue my passions?’

Instead of getting pregnant and marrying at such a young age, Fang Liu would have been able to walk a path that she chose for herself.

A Bugatti Veyron was parked in front of the research institute. Many passers-by admired the hypercar.

Fang Liu simply walked past the hypercar as she looked ahead. She had no interest in cars, so even the luxurious car in front of her was no different from a regular car.

When the person in the hypercar saw that Fang Liu did not look over, they were so angry that their face became red with rage.

Fang Liu looked around, trying to find Mo Yu’s car.

At this moment, the Bugatti Veyron suddenly revved up, drove toward Fang Liu, and stopped beside her. A young man in a flashy outfit jumped out of the car. The man wore sunglasses, and one could already see that he was stunningly handsome.

Fang Liu was shocked and took two steps backward. The young man walked forward, took off his sunglasses, and said to Fang Liu, “Long time no see, Young Madam Fang.”

Fang Liu was stunned for a moment, and only then did she realize that the person standing in front of her was Qi Han.

Seeing that Fang Liu had trouble recognizing him, Qi Han’s smile immediately disappeared.

Even if Qi Han were wearing a mask, a coat, a hat, and a scarf, he would easily be recognized by his adoring fans.

But Qi Han was dressed so flamboyantly that Fang Liu didn’t even recognize Qi Han, making him sad.

“H-Hello…” Fang Liu was unfamiliar with Qi Han and was at a loss for words. Fang Liu was shy and wanted to leave quickly. “Mo Yu is on his way to pick me up. I shall take my leave.”

Fang Liu turned around and was about to leave, but Qi Han grabbed her by the wrist. Qi Han had a disappointed look on his face. “Sigh, I thought that you would be happy to see me since I allowed you to use my family’s research lab. But it seems as though I’m wrong.”

“Wh-What? This research lab belongs to your family?” Fang Liu was stunned for a moment.

Qi Han nodded. “Yes, the research lab belongs to my family. I heard that you needed a place to conduct some research, so I begged my family to let you use the facility. It took a lot of convincing.”

Qi Han was being honest. To convince his family to allow Fang Liu to use the research facilities, Qi Han had told his family that he was prepared to give up his acting career and come home to take over the family business.

When the Qi family saw that Qi Han was willing to give up his acting career and come home to take over the family business, they were thrilled, so they immediately agreed to his request.

Qi Han simply wanted Fang Liu to pity him when he told her of his sacrifices. Qi Han’s almond-shaped eyes stared deeply at Fang Liu. “Are you not grateful to me?”

Fang Liu was stunned. She didn’t expect that this research lab belonged to the Qi family.

“Y-Yes, I am extremely grateful.” Fang Liu hurriedly thanked Qi Han.

“It’s windy out here. We should talk in the car instead.” Qi Han smiled, revealing his pearl-white teeth..
